Uh, you do realize that Funimation is the company that releases the DVDs here too, right?
No, I didn't realize that, thank you.
So... you won't be able to buy DVDs with English dubs?
I just didn't want to shell-out money to see the newer episodes in English, that's all. But if I have to, I will. The series ended with a cliff-hanger
http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ctAGDkFkYSI&feature=channel_page and this is what BattleFlanky, the one that uploads OP episodes had to say
"..and that's that. Either back to the start with 4kids or.. Zoro v. Braham again (conflicting sources) starting tomorrow. My immediate feelings are that this is probably the end of the 'brand new' episodes on Australia Cartoon Network, I think FUNi have finished airing whatever they had (in this case the remainder of Skypeia) which wasn't picked up by the US CN. Continuing producing episodes solely for a relatively small market doesn't seem to make much sense at all, they've probably refocused their efforts almost entirely on the Voyage DVD series. I guess, we'll have to wait and see."
So, I didn't want to, but I guess I'll have to buy the OP DVDs now so that I can keep track of their quest for the treasure, One Piece.
Sorry about the confusion.
That must be a lot of work to dub a long series like One Piece. Doesn't it have something like 300 episodes?
Yeah, it has 383 episodes so far. I think I'm stuck at episode 194 for now.
